    2.3 Overview of SP600 Features

    This section provides an overview of the features in the SP600 AC drive.

    2.3.1 Analog Inputs

    There are two general-purpose analog inputs that can be configured either as voltage (±10 VDC or current (4-20 mA) inputs. These inputs are configured via parameters to provide some flexibility.

    The analog inputs provide input signals that can be used for the following purposes:

    • Provide a value to Speed Ref A (Speed Ref A Sel (90))

    • Provide a trim signal to Speed Ref A (Trim in Sel (117))

  • About the Drive 2-5

    • Provide a reference when the terminal block has assumed manual control of the reference (TB Man Ref Sel (96))

    • Provide the reference and feedback for the process PI loop (PI Ref Sel (126) and PI Feedback Sel (128))

    • Provide an external value for the current limit and DC braking level (Current Limit Sel (147) and DC Bake Lvl Sel (157))

    • Enter and exit sleep mode (178 to 183))

    Refer to the parameter descriptions in chapter 11 for more information about configuring the analog inputs.

    2.3.2 Analog Outputs

    The drive has one analog output that can be used as a voltage (-10 to 10 V) or current (4-20 mA) signal to annunciate a wide variety of drive operating conditions and values. Select the source for the analog output by setting Analog Out1 Sel (342).

    Refer to parameter 342 in chapter 11 for the analog output source options.

    2.3.3 Digital Outputs

    The SP600 drive provides two relay outputs for external annunciation of a variety of drive conditions. Each relay is a Form C (1 N.O. - 1 N.C. with shared common) device whose contacts and associated terminals are rated for a maximum of 250 VAC or 220 VDC.

    See parameters 380 and 384 in chapter 11 for the drive conditions that can be annunciated.

    2.3.4 Multiple Control Modes

    The SP600 drive provides a number of user-selectable control modes to suit different applications:

    • Sensorless Vector

    • Sensorless Vector Economizer

    • Custom Volts per Hertz

    • Fan and Pump volts per Hertz

    See the parameter description for Torque Perf Mode (53) in chapter 11 for details of operation of each control mode.

  • 2-6 SP600 AC Drive User Manual

    2.3.5 Multiple Stop Methods

    There are several stop methods that can be selected using drive parameters 155 and 156:

    • Coast to Stop

    • Brake to Stop

    • Ramp to Stop

    • Ramp to Hold

    Refer to the parameter descriptions in chapter 11 for more information about these stop mode selections.

    Another stop method, dynamic braking, uses an optional internal or external DB braking resistor to dissipate stopping energy. See parameters 161 to 163 for more information about this feature.

    2.3.6 Multiple Speed Control Methods

    The purpose of speed regulation is to allow the drive to adjust to certain operating conditions, such as load change, and compensate for these changes in an attempt to maintain motor shaft speed within the specified regulation percentage.

    The Speed Mode parameter (80) selects the speed regulation method for the drive, and can be set to one of 3 choices

    • Open Loop - No speed control is offered

    • Slip Comp - Slip Compensation is active

    • Process PI - The PI loop sets the actual speed based on process variables.

    Refer to parameter 80 in chapter 11 for more information.

    2.3.7 Auto/Manual Reference Selection

    You can override the selected “auto” reference by either toggling a function key on the OIM or asserting a digital input (Digital In”x” Sel (361 to 366)) that has been configured for Manual. This provides a source for local speed reference control even if a process input signal is the primary speed reference source.

    Refer to the parameter descriptions in chapter 11 for more information.

  • About the Drive 2-7

    2.3.8 Seven Preset Frequency Setpoints

    There are seven preset frequency parameters (101 to 107) that are used to store a discrete frequency value. This value can be used for a speed reference or process PI reference. When used as a speed reference, they are selected via the digital inputs or the DPI (network) reference command. Refer to the parameter descriptions in chapter 11 for more information.

    2.3.9 Motor-Operated Potentiometer (MOP) Function

    The Motor-Operated Pot (MOP) function is one of the sources for the frequency reference (selected in parameter 90). The MOP function uses digital inputs to increment or decrement the speed reference at a programmed rate.

    The MOP has these components:

    • MOP Rate parameter (195)

    • Save MOP Ref parameter (194)

    • MOP Frequency parameter (11)

    • MOP increment input (parameters 361 to 366)

    • MOP decrement input (parameters 361 to 366)

    2.3.10 Auto Restart (Reset/Run)

    The Auto Restart feature, enabled in parameter 174 (Auto Rstrt Tries), provides the ability for the drive to automatically perform a fault reset followed by a start attempt without user or application intervention. This allows for automatic restart in applications where the drive is used in remote or "unattended" operation.

    Important: Only certain faults are allowed to be auto reset. Faults that indicate possible drive malfunction are not resettable. Caution should be used when enabling this feature, since the drive will attempt to issue its own start command based on user-selected programming.

    Refer to the descriptions of parameters 174 and 175 in chapter 11 for more information about using the Auto Restart feature.

  • 2-8 SP600 AC Drive User Manual

    2.3.11 Autotune

    The Autotune feature, enabled in parameter 61 (Autotune), identifies the motor flux current and stator resistance for use in Sensorless Vector Control and Economizer modes (selected in parameter 53). The result of the flux current test procedure is stored in the Flux Current parameter (63), and the product of Flux Current Ref (63) and stator resistance is stored in IR Voltage Drop (62).

    There are three options for autotuning:

    • Static - the motor shaft will not rotate during this test.

    • Dynamic - the motor shaft will rotate during this test.

    • Calculate - tuning data is selected based on the motor nameplate data entered.

    The static test determines only stator resistance, while the dynamic Autotune procedure determines both the stator resistance and motor flux current.

    IR Voltage Drop (62) is used by the drive to provide additional voltage at all frequencies to offset the voltage drop developed across the stator resistance. An accurate calculation of the IR Voltage Drop will ensure higher starting torque and better performance at low speed operation.

    If it is not possible or desirable to run the Autotune tests, there are two other methods for the drive to determine the IR Voltage Drop and Flux Current parameters. One method retrieves the default parameters stored in the drive EEPROM, and the other method calculates them from the user-entered motor nameplate data parameters.

    If the stator resistance and flux current of the motor are known, you can calculate the voltage drop across the stator resistance and directly enter these values into the Flux Current and IR Voltage Drop parameters.

    Refer to the description of the Autotune parameter (61) in chapter 11 for more information about using this feature.

    2.3.12 Drive Protection Current Limit

    There are six ways that the drive protects itself from overcurrent or overload situations:

    • Instantaneous overcurrent trip

    • Software Instantaneous trip

  • About the Drive 2-9

    • Software current limit

    • Heatsink temperature protection

    • Overload protection IT (see Drive Overload Protection, section 2.3.13)

    • Thermal manager

    2.3.13 Drive Overload Protection

    The drive thermal overload will protect the drive power stage while maintaining performance as long as the drive temperature and current ratings are not exceeded.

    The drive will monitor the temperature of the power module based on a measured temperature and a thermal model of the IGBT. As the temperature rises, the drive may lower the PWM frequency to decrease the switching losses in the IGBT. If the temperature continues to rise, the drive may reduce current limit to try to decrease the load on the drive. If the drive temperature becomes critical, the drive will generate a fault.

    If the drive is operated in a low ambient condition, the drive may exceed rated levels of current before the monitored temperature becomes critical. To guard against this situation, the drive thermal overload also includes an inverse time algorithm. When this scheme detects operation beyond rated levels, current limit may be reduced or a fault may be generated.

  • 2-10 SP600 AC Drive User Manual

    2.3.14 Motor Overload Protection

    The motor thermal overload function (enabled in parameter 238) uses an inverse time (IT) algorithm to model the temperature of the motor. This curve is modeled after a Class 10 protection thermal overload relay that produces a theoretical trip at 600% motor current in ten (10) seconds and continuously operates at full motor current.

    The following parameters are used to set the overload feature:

    • Motor NP FLA (42)

    • OL Factor (48)

    • Motor OL Hertz (47)

    • Fault Config 1 (238)

    Refer to parameter 42 in chapter 11 for more information about this feature.

    2.3.15 .Shear Pin Fault

    This feature allows you to program the drive to fault if the drive output current exceeds the programmed current limit (see parameter 238). As a default, exceeding the set current limit is not a fault condition. However, if you want to stop the process in the event of excess current, the Shear Pin feature can be activated. By programming the drive current limit value and enabling the electronic shear pin, the drive will fault if excess current is demanded by the motor

    2.3.16 .Drives Peripheral Interface (DPI)

    SP600 drives support Drive Peripheral Interface (DPI) communication protocols for the primary interface and drive control. The DPI interface is an enhanced serial communications protocol that provides high functionality and high performance.

    The serial DPI connection is used for devices such as Operator Interface Modules (OIMs), PC interface tool (VS Utilities), and network communication modules.

  • About the Drive 2-11

    2.3.17 Network Data Transfer via Datalinks

    A Datalink (see parameters 300 to 317) is one of the mechanisms used by SP600 drives to transfer data to and from a programmable controller via the optional network interface modules (e.g. DeviceNet or ControlNet). In the case of ControlNet, Datalinks allow a parameter value to be changed without using an Explicit Message or Block Transfer.

    Each Datalink (e.g. A1, A2 for Datalink A) transfers two 16-bit values (A1, A2). If a 32-bit value needs to be transferred, each of the two 16-bit Datalinks must be set to the same parameter. One Datalink transfers the lower 16 bits; the other, the upper 16 bits.

    For example, to set up the drive to receive accel and decel times from the connected PLC you would make the following parameter settings:

    Data In A1 (300) = 140 (the parameter number of Accel Time 1)Data In A2 (301) = 142 (the parameter number of Decel Time 1)

    2.3.18 Programmable Parameter Access Levels and Protection

    The SP600 drive allows you to limit the number of parameters that can be viewed on the LCD OIM using an Access Level password. By limiting the parameter view to the most commonly adjusted set, additional features that may make the drive seem more complicated are hidden.

    If you are trying to gain access to a particular parameter and the OIM skips over it, you must change the parameter view from "Basic" to "Advanced." This can be accomplished by reprogramming Param Access Lvl (196) to "Advanced". See section 10.3.1 for instructions.

    2.3.19 Process PI Loop

    The internal process PI function (see parameters 124 to 138) provides closed-loop process control with proportional and integral control action. The PI function reads a process variable input to the drive and compares it to a desired setpoint stored in the drive. The algorithm will then adjust the output of the process PI regulator thereby changing drive output frequency to try to make the process variable equal the setpoint.

    Refer to the descriptions of parameters 124 and 138 in chapter 11 for more information.

  • 2-12 SP600 AC Drive User Manual

    2.3.20 S Curve

    The S Curve function of SP600 drives allows control of the "jerk" component of acceleration and deceleration through user adjustment of the S Curve parameter (146). Jerk is defined as the rate of change of acceleration and/or deceleration. By adjusting the percentage of S Curve applied to the normal accel/decel ramps, the ramp takes the shape of an "S" allowing a smoother transition that produces less mechanical stress and smoother control for light loads.

    Refer to the description of parameter 146 in chapter 11 for more information.

    2.3.21 Three Skip Bands (Avoidance Frequencies)

    The skip band function (see parameters 84 to 87 in chapter 11) provides three skip bands (also called avoidance frequencies) that the drive will ramp through but will not continuously run within. You can set the skip frequency (center frequency) and bandwidth of each band.This function is used to avoid mechanical resonance operating setpoints.

    2.3.22 Flying Start

    The flying start feature (enabled in parameter 169) is used to start into a rotating motor as rapidly as possible and resume normal operation with a minimal impact on load or speed. This action will prevent an overcurrent trip and significantly reduce the time for the motor to reach its desired frequency. Since the motor is "picked up" smoothly at its rotating speed and ramped to the proper speed, little or no mechanical stress is present.

    Refer to the description of parameter 169 in chapter 11 for more information.

    2.3.23 Voltage Class

    The voltage class (see parameter 202 in chapter 11) identifies the general input voltage to the drive. This general voltage includes a range of actual operating voltages. A 400 volt class drive will have an acceptable input voltage range of 380 to 480 VAC. A 575 volt class will have a range of 475 to 632 volts.

    While the hardware remains the same within each class, other variables, such as factory defaults and power unit ratings, will change. In most cases, all drives within a voltage class can be reprogrammed to accommodate a motor within its voltage class. This can be done by resetting the Voltage Class parameter to a different setup within the voltage class.

  • About the Drive 2-13

    As an example, consider a 480 volt drive. This drive comes with factory default values for 480 V, 60 Hz, with motor data defaulted for U.S. motors (HP rated, 1750 RPM, etc.) By setting the Voltage Class parameter to "low voltage" (this represents 400 V in this case) the defaults are changed to 400 V, 50 Hz settings with motor data for European motors (kW rated, 1500 RPM, etc.).

    2.3.24 Motor Cable Lengths

    The length of cable between the drive and motor may be limited for various application reasons. The primary areas of concern are:

    • Reflected wave

    • Cable charging

    The reflected wave phenomenon, also known as transmission line effect, produces very high peak voltages on the motor due to voltage reflection. While Reliance Electric drives have patented software that limits the voltage peak to 2 times the DC bus voltage and reduce the number of occurrences, many motors have inadequate insulation systems to tolerate these peaks.

    Caution should be taken to understand the effects and restrictions when applying the drive to extended motor lead length applications. Proper cable type, motor and drive selection is required to minimize the potential risks.

    2.3.25 Economizer Mode

    Economize mode consists of operating the drive in sensorless vector control mode with an energy saving function (E-SVC). When the drive is in this mode and operating at steady state output frequency, the output voltage is automatically adjusted as the load is increased or decreased. This is done so that minimum current is supplied to the motor thereby optimizing its efficiency. By adjusting the output voltage, the flux producing current is reduced, but only if the total drive output current does not exceed 75% of motor rated current. In this mode the flux current is not allowed to be less than 50% of the selected flux current parameter value.

    2.3.26 Fan Curve

    When Torque Perf Mode (53) is set to Fan/Pump V/Hz the relationship between frequency and voltage is a square function where the voltage is proportional to frequency. The fan curve provides the option to generate voltage that is a function of the stator frequency squared up to the motor nameplate frequency. Above base frequency, the voltage is a linear function of frequency. At low speed, the fan curve can be offset by the Run Boost (70) parameter to provide necessary starting torque.

  • 2-14 SP600 AC Drive User Manual

    2.3.27 Programmable Parameter Access Levels and Protection

    The SP600 drive allows you to limit the number of parameters that can be viewed on the LCD OIM using an Access Level password. See section 10.3.1 for more information about this password.

    You can also protect parameters from unauthorized changes by activating the Write Protect password. See section 10.4 for more information about this password.

    2.3.28 User Sets

    2.3.28.1Normal Mode

    After a drive has been configured for a given application, you can store a copy of all of the parameter settings in a specific EEPROM area known as a user set. Up to three user sets can be stored in the drive’s memory to be used for backup, batch switching, or other needs. All parameter information is stored. You can then recall this data to the active drive operating memory as needed. Each user set can also be identified with a user-selected name.

    You can use this feature using any of the following methods:

    • Set parameters Load Frm Usr Set (198) and Save To User Set (199). Refer to the parameter descriptions in chapter 11.

    • Program the function keys on the LCD OIM. Refer to section B.3.1 for this procedure.

    • Access the Memory Storage menu on the LCD OIM. Refer to section B.7.2.

    Figure 2.2 – Normal Mode Operation

  • About the Drive 2-15

    2.3.28.2Dynamic Mode

    Dynamic Mode Operation allows User Sets to be loaded by utilizing digital input states or by writing a value to a user set select parameter (205). In this mode, the active area will no longer exchange data with any User Set, but the operating memory will be directly loaded with any one of the three User Sets.

    Important: User Sets must be properly setup in Normal Mode before they can be loaded and used in Dynamic Mode.

    The method of writing the user set select parameter (205) value will allow a communications network to control which User Set is in use. Digital inputs can be configured to allow local control of User Sets from the drive’s Terminal Block. Up to two digital inputs can be defined to allow selection of any combination of the three User Sets. Digital Inputs can be configured through Parameters 361 through 366.

    The Dynamic Mode Operation User Set operation is enabled and disabled by a configuration parameter (204).

    Important: Parameter writes are only recorded in the operating memory and not copied to non-volatile storage. Changes made to parameter values while Dynamic Mode is active will not be saved.

    Parameter changes or power loss while Dynamic Mode is disabled (Normal Mode) will still automatically save changed data to active area non-volatile storage. Loading of User Set data to operating memory can occur only while the drive is in a stop condition. If a Dynamic Mode command from digital inputs occurs while the drive is running, the transfer of the selected User Set data will not occur until the drive is stopped, assuming that the Dynamic Mode and the transfer command are both still active when the drive stops. A Dynamic Mode command from the user set select parameter (205) while the drive is running will be immediately rejected.

    Typical Setup / Operation:

    Step 1. While in normal mode (Dyn UserSet Cnfg (204) = x0), enter data into drive and save to User Set using Save to User Set (199). Repeat for each needed User Set. Check that Dynamic User Set related Digital Inputs (parameters 361-366) and Datalink Inputs (parameters 300-307) are programmed the same in each.

    Step 2. Enable Dynamic User Set Mode (Dyn UserSet Cnfg (204) = x1).

    Step 3. Test restoring each programmed user Set via digital Inputs or DynUsrSetSel (205). If a Fault or Type 2 Alarm

  • 2-16 SP600 AC Drive User Manual

    occurs (Drive Alarm 2 (212) is non-zero), the User Set causing the error is loaded (see Dyn UserSet Actv (206) for indication). Return to Normal Mode (Dyn UserSet Cnfg (204) = x0), correct the Digital Input or Datalink definition(s), and save to the User Set that was loaded. Repeat step 2.

    Step 4. Begin normal drive operation. Remember that User Sets can only be loaded while the drive is stopped.

    At power-up, the drive will load operating memory with the values contained in the active non-volatile storage as part of initialization. If Dynamic Mode is Enabled, the selected User Set data will be loaded and processed after drive initialization completes but before the drive is allowed to become active. If Dynamic Mode is active and drive power is removed, User Set data will not be saved and any parameter changes will be lost.

    When Dyn UserSet Cnfg (204) is set to Enabled, the drive will immediately transfer the selected User Set to operating memory as determined by digital inputs or DynUsrSetSel (205). The drive will verify that the User Set digital input configuration is identical in all three sets.

    To avoid operational conflict between User Set values, all digital inputs must be set identically in each user set. If the digital inputs in each user set are not set identically, a Type 2 alarm is generated. The condition(s) must be corrected before the drive can become active.

    Load Frm Usr Set (198) and Save to User Set (199) commands are not permitted in Dynamic Mode because these operations define data transfer between the active memory and the User Sets.

    Disabling Dynamic Mode will cause the drive to operate in Normal Mode and parameter values will be transferred from operating memory into the active non-volatile storage area.

  • 3-2 SP600 AC Drive User Manual

    3.1 General Requirements for the Installation Site

    It is important to properly plan before installing a SP600 AC drive to ensure that the drive’s environment and operating conditions are satisfactory. Note that no devices are to be mounted behind the drive. If air-cooled devices are mounted near the drive, the hot air exhaust may raise the ambient temperature level above what is allowed for safe operation of the drive.

    The area behind the drive must be kept clear of all control and power wiring. Power connections may create electromagnetic fields which may interfere with control wiring or components when run in close proximity to the drive. Read the recommendations in the following sections before continuing with drive installation.

    3.1.1 Verifying Power Module AC Input Ratings Match Available Power

    SP600 drives are suitable for use on a circuit capable of delivering up to a maximum of 200,000 rms symmetrical amperes, and a maximum of 600 volts (nominal).

    3.1.1.1 Unbalanced or Ungrounded Distribution Systems

    For ungrounded distribution systems, disconnect the MOVs and common mode capacitors by removing or disconnecting the jumper(s) shown in figure 3.1.

    !ATTENTION: To guard against personal injury and/or equipment damage caused by improper fusing or circuit breaker selection, use only the recommended line fuses/circuit breakers specified in section 4.4.

    !ATTENTION: SP600 drives contain protective MOVs and common mode capacitors that are referenced to ground. To guard against drive damage, these devices should be disconnected if the drive is installed on an ungrounded distribution system where the line-to-ground voltages on any phase could exceed 125% of the nominal line-to-line voltage. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to, or destruction of, the equipment.

    ATTENTION: To avoid electric shock hazard, verify that the voltage on the bus capacitors has discharged before removing/installing jumpers. Measure the DC bus voltage at the +DC terminal of the Power Terminal Block and the -DC test point. The voltage must be zero.

    3.1.1.2 Input Power Conditioning

    If any of the following conditions exist, the use of a line reactor or isolation transformer is recommended.

    • Frequent power outages• Ungrounded AC supply source• Facility has power factor correction capacitors• Input voltage variations exceed drive operating specifications

    3.1.1.3 AC Input Phase Selection (60HP and Larger)

    Move the “Line Type” jumper as shown in figure 3.2 to select single or three-phase operation.

    Important: When selecting single-phase operation, input power must be applied to the R (L1) and S (L2) terminals only.

    3.1.1.4 Selecting/Verifying Fan Voltage (60HP and Larger)

    Drives rated 60HP and larger use a transformer to match the input line voltage to the internal fan voltage. If your line voltage is different than the voltage class specified on the drive nameplate, it will be necessary to change the transformer tap as shown in figure 3.2. Common Bus (DC Input) drives require user supplied 120 or 240V AC to power the cooling fans. The power source is connected between “0 VAC” and the terminal corresponding to your source voltage.

    The transformer is located behind the Power Terminal Block in the area shown in figure 3.2. Access is gained by releasing the terminal block from the rail. To release terminal block and change tap:

    Step 1. Locate the small metal tab at the bottom of the end block.

    Step 2. Press the tab in and pull the top of the block out. Repeat for next block if desired.

    Step 3. Select appropriate transformer tap.

    Step 4. Replace block(s) in reverse order.

    3.1.2 Making Sure Environmental Conditions are Met

    Before deciding on an installation site, consider the following guidelines:

    • Verify that NEMA 1 drives can be kept clean, cool, and dry.• The area chosen should allow the space required for proper air

    flow as defined in section 3.1.3.

    • Be sure that NEMA 1 drives are away from oil, coolants, or other airborne contaminants.

    • Do not install the drive more than 3300 feet above sea level without derating output power. For every 300 feet above 3300 feet, derate the output current 1%.

    • Verify that the drive location will meet the environmental conditions in Appendix A.

This table lists the typical full load power loss watts value at a carrier frequency of 4 kHz. (The 248 amp drive is rated at a carrier frequency value of 2 kHz.) Ensure that the enclosure is adequately ventilated with 0° to 40° C (32° to 104° F) ambient air.

  • Mounting the Drive 3-12

  • Wiring Requirements for the Drive 4-1

    CHAPTER 4Wiring Requirements

    for the Drive

    Wire size should be determined based on the size of conduit openings, and applicable local, national, and international codes, such as NEC/CEC. Evaluate wire sizes, branch circuit protection, and E-stop wiring before continuing with the drive installation.

    4.1 Power Wiring

    Cable Types Acceptable for 200-600 Volt Installations

    General

    A variety of cable types are acceptable for drive installations. For many installations, unshielded cable is adequate, provided it can be separated from sensitive circuits.

    As an approximate guide, allow a spacing of 0.3 meters (1 foot) for every 10 meters (32.8 feet) of length. In all cases, long parallel runs must be avoided. Do not use cable with an insulation thickness less than or equal to 15 mils (0.4mm/0.015 in.). See table 4.1.

    !ATTENTION: The user is responsible for conforming with all applicable local, national, and international codes. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to, or destruction of, the equipment.

    !ATTENTION: National Codes and standards (NEC, VDE, BSI etc.) and local codes outline provisions for safely installing electrical equipment. Installation must comply with specifications regarding wire types, conductor sizes, branch circuit protection and disconnect devices. Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.

    THHN, THWN or similar wire is acceptable for drive installation in dry environments provided adequate free air space and/or conduit fill rates limits are provided. Do not use THHN or similarly coated wire in wet areas. Any wire chosen must have a minimum insulation thickness of 15 mils and should not have large variations in insulation concentricity.

    Shielded/Armored Cable

    Shielded cable contains all of the general benefits of multi-conductor cable with the added benefit of a copper braided shield that can contain much of the noise generated by a typical AC drive. Strong consideration for shielded cable should be given in installations with sensitive equipment such as weigh scales, capacitive proximity switches, and other devices that may be affected by electrical noise in the distribution system. Applications with large numbers of drives in a similar location, imposed EMC regulations, or a high degree of communications/networking are also good candidates for shielded cable.

    Shielded cable may also help reduce shaft voltage and induced bearing currents for some applications. In addition, the increased impedance of shielded cable may help extend the distance that the motor can be located from the drive without the addition of motor protective devices such as terminator networks.

    Consideration should be given to all of the general specifications dictated by the environment of the installation, including temperature, flexibility, moisture characteristics, and chemical resistance. In addition, a braided shield should be included and be specified by the cable manufacturer as having coverage of at least 75%. An additional foil shield can greatly improve noise containment.

    A good example of recommended cable is Belden 295xx (xx determines gauge). This cable has four (4) XLPE insulated conductors with a 100% coverage foil and an 85% coverage copper braided shield (with drain wire) surrounded by a PVC jacket. See table table 4.1.

    Other types of shielded cable are available, but the selection of these types may limit the allowable cable length. Particularly, some of the newer cables twist 4 conductors of THHN wire and wrap them tightly with a foil shield. This construction can greatly increase the cable charging current required and reduce the overall drive performance. Unless specified in the individual distance tables as tested with the drive, these cables are not recommended and their performance against the lead length limits supplied is not known.

    4.1.2 Using Input/Output Contactors

    Input Contactor Precautions

    Output Contactor Precaution

    !ATTENTION: A contactor or other device that routinely disconnects and reapplies the AC line to the drive to start and stop the motor can cause drive hardware damage. The drive is designed to use control input signals that will start and stop the motor. If an input device is used, operation must not exceed one cycle per minute or drive damage will occur.

    ATTENTION: The drive start/stop/enable controlcircuitry includes solid state components. If hazards due to accidental contact with moving machinery or unintentional flow of liquid, gas or solids exist, an additional hardwired stop circuit may be required to remove the AC line to the drive. An auxiliary braking method may be required.

    !ATTENTION: To guard against drive damage when using output contactors, the following information must be read and understood. One or more output contactors may be installed between the drive and motor(s) for the purpose of disconnecting or isolating certain motors/loads. If a contactor is opened while the drive is operating, power will be removed from the respective motor, but the drive will continue to produce voltage at the output terminals. In addition, reconnecting a motor to an active drive (by closing the contactor) could produce excessive current that may cause the drive to fault. If any of these conditions are determined to be undesirable or unsafe, an auxiliary contact on the output contactor should be wired to a drive digital input that is programmed as “Enable.” This will cause the drive to execute a coast-to-stop (cease output) whenever an output contactor is opened.

    4.2 Control and Signal Wire Sizes

    The terminal block on the SP 600 I/O interface board provides terminals for 24 V or 115 VAC power for the control inputs, depending on the I/O card installed in the drive. Refer to 4.3 for signal and control wiring specifications.

    4.3 Recommended Motor Lead Lengths

    Important: To reduce line disturbances and noise, motor lead length should not exceed 300 feet for any non-Reliance Electric motor or any non-inverter duty motor.

    The length of cable between the drive and motor may be limited for various applications reasons. The primary reasons are:

    • Reflected wave

    • Cable charging

    !ATTENTION: Verify the voltage rating of the I/O interface board before wiring any user devices. Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to, or destruction of, the equipment.

  • 4-6 SP600 AC Drive User Manual

    Typically, motor lead lengths less than 91 m (300 ft) are acceptable. The primary concerns regarding cable length are cable charging and reflected wave (see section 4.3.1).

    When total lead length exceeds 300 feet, nuisance trips can occur caused by capacitive current flow to ground. Note that these capacitively-coupled currents should be taken into consideration when working in areas where drives are running. If the motor lead length must exceed these limits, the addition of output line reactors (see section 6.3.1) or other steps must be taken to avoid problems.

    Your application may be restricted to a shorter lead length due to:

    • the type of wire (shielded or unshielded)

    • the placement of wire (for example, in conduit or a cable tray)

    • the type of line reactor

    • the type of motor.

    • carrier frequency.

    Figure 4.1 illustrates how to calculate motor lead lengths. The examples shown assume a maximum lead length of 300 feet.

    4.3.1 Reflected Wave Compensation

    You must understand the effects and restrictions when applying the drive to extended motor lead length applications. Proper cable type, motor and drive selection is required to minimize the potential risks.

    The reflected wave phenomenon, also known as transmission line effect, produces very high peak voltages on the motor due to voltage reflection. Voltages in excess of twice the DC bus voltage, (650 V DC nominal @480 V input) result at the motor and can cause motor winding failure.

    While Reliance Electric drives have patented software that limits the voltage peak to 2 times the DC bus voltage and reduce the number of occurrences, many motors have inadequate insulation systems to tolerate these peaks.

    The correction software modifies the PWM modulator to prevent PWM pulses less than a minimum time from being applied to th
